Is Your Shelter A Fallout Shelter The climate for a fallout shelter is important. Dry earth is a good insulator but over the course of a few weeks it becomes too hot. The easiest and most efficient way to cool of is to have a heavy frame with open flaps that opens in one direction and closes in another. This should hang from the ceiling. Attach a rope and take turns swinging it

Is Your Shelter A Fallout Shelter You can consider unfiltered air safe due to the fact that the fallout has the consistency of sand or finely ground pumice. Such large particles are not easily ingested into the soft tissues of the body, so extensive filters are not required. Exposure to fine dust is less harmful than exposure to the gamma from outside the fallout shelter.

Types of fallout shelters There are two types of fallout shelters, public and private shelters. During the cold war dozens of these shelters were made in the basements of buildings and in the country side. The point of a public shelter was to house dozens of people for the required amount of time that it took for the fallout to be at a safe enough level to leave.

Types of fallout shelters Continued The amount of time to drop levels safe enough was said to be two weeks. Most of the bunkers now have been turned into museums. Private shelters are the same but only house a small group of people or a family.
